I use 55gal drums for diesel, have an electric pump and this filter. I get a small amount of water in the sediment bowl of the filter, but a lot of water in the sediment bowl in my tractor. I expected the sediment bowl on the filter to capture more of the water, but maybe the turbulence of the fuel from the pump running mixes the water with the fuel and forces it through the filter into my tractor tank. I've seen filters that claim they remove water, but they're also listed as 10 micron which is the same size as the filter I have.
If I buy a filter like this to remove water, how do I know when it's full? With the amount of water I'm seeing, this thing would be full after one or two barrels. It would seem like there should be some way to drain the thing to get the water out.
